Came here with a large party and the place was accommodating and able to fit all of us in the back room quickly. The place was full of locals so it seemed like a hot spot. The guacamole was good! Sometimes guacamole can be lacking or taste fake but this one was decent. The server told us one of the best sellers was the jumbo burrito so we ordered that and my brother ate the whole thing. The street taco plate came with a side of onions and cilantro and green sauce. The steak was good but the pork was very greasy tasting. It didn't have the authentic street taco taste to it. The cilantro in the cup was also browning which didn't make it seem very fresh. The chips were kind of burnt tasting. Not the best Mexican restaurant I've ever been to but it did ok for the area and what was available in town.

Have been here twice in 3 years. First time was very disappointing, the food was just not the quality I am used to being from South Texas, apparently Nebraska has a different experience in TexMex cuisine. To be it wasn't very authentic. Second visit somewhat better, they actually had a Negro Modelo in stock, but the ChiliRelleno wasn't what I am used to. It was reasonably good however

I've come back after 2 1/2 years. Lunch with an associate, had the pompano rellano...Hard to compare with the South Texas fare as it has been 3 years...But the Negra Modelo was a treat to the taste buds. Chips and salsa....well I've had better, maybe spoiled on my apace picante..But the pompano with shredded chicken on al a Carter was just enough for me...Not too bad, but I'm not phoning my Mom!!Atmosphere is nice, has a bar. Might just have a Mojito....

The only compliment I can offer this restaurant is that it was relatively inexpensive. The food and service were truly awful. As out of state visitors for the weekend, we had enjoyed a great experience at La Cocina in York the day before. Our experience at El Agave in Central City was the polar opposite; we were unpleasantly surprised by the dramatically different food quality and service in these neighboring towns. We like to support local businesses whenever possible, but we would absolutely not return to this restaurant.

Update to my earlier review: I have tried dozens more dishes at El Agave and have still not had a bad one. Some favorites: Chilaquiles, Chicken Chimichanga (comes with chicken tostada; a lot of food), Poblano Relleno, and Tilapia Loca. All of these selections are generously portioned and delicious.The margaritas are great, too!!

El Agave is a fantastic authentic Mexican restaurant. We have a family of 5 and there is something for everyone. My father, who does not care for Authentic Mexican, loves their Shrimp Fajitas and their Maragartias. We have an Airbnb and we are so fortunate to be able to refer our guests to El Agave. They've all raved about the restaurant. They are also a fantastic option for take-out.

First Mexican food restaurant in Central City and I have yet to not like any of their dishes, everything is fresh and authentic, the service is always prompt and friendly. The chips and queso are a must paired with one of the best margaritas in this town!

I Have enjoyed everything I have tried at El Agave so far and especially the fajitas and carnitas. Fast and friendly service and I'm happy it's close by. I have had a great experience every time I've dined in or picked up take out.

Nice place and very clean. Food came out fast and the service was good. Similar food to Mazatlan in Lincoln, NE.m and we really enjoyed it.
